Mariela De La Mora on Stress Spirals, Scarcity Mindset, and Rewriting the Future

In this episode of Tough Stuff Podcast I sit down with Mariela De La Mora, a leadership coach who works to elevate women of color into influential, in-demand money-making leaders. As a 16-year veteran of the marketing world and the eldest daughter of Mexican immigrants, she was often the only woman of color in senior leadership and has worked relentlessly to break past systemic and mindset barriers to achieve the success she has today. Listen in as Mariela opens up about the spiral of stress and anxiety that affected the sales in her coaching business, how she broke free from the scarcity mindset she inherited from her childhood, and how she is now working to nurture the potential of the next generation through her own daughter. * * * * * * * * * * ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS [00:01:31] Mariela’s mixed feelings on receiving compliments on her success [00:06:08] Entrepreneurship is a game of evolution and change is the only constant [00:07:39] Overcoming the internal struggle between logic and fear in scaling business [00:11:32] Learning to be okay regardless of business results [00:14:12] Working with a coach to increase growth mindset and success capacity [00:18:37] Checking beliefs on what it looks like to be and work with marginalized communities [00:23:15] Nurturing individuality and setting her daughter up for lifelong success [00:24:43] Reflecting on the potential for generational change * * * * * * * * * * 👋 STAY IN TOUCH ✦ Tough Stuff Podcast ✦ Our website Follow @toughstuffpod on Instagram ✦ Your Host: Audrey Saccone ✦ Follow @audreysaccone on Instagram Follow @audreysaccone on TikTok Learn more about Audrey Digital Follow @audreydigital on Instagram ✦ Today’s Guest: Mariela De La Mora ✦ Follow @mariela.delamora on Instagram Learn more about Mariela’s Coaching Work Explore Mariela’s Quick Links --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toughstuff/message
